Abstract :
[en] Our contribution aims at exploring the rhetorical status of charters and declarations of Modernity inspired by the concept of Human Rights. Those texts are necessary to establish or restore social concord facing to an unsatisfactory (recent) past or present, around common values which were matter of consensus. However, unlike the epideictic genre, they own an argumentative part by motivating the need of (re)fund Concord. That part evokes what we might call a “dystopia”, the negative situation that should be distanced. “Figurating” the social reality to be built, from such unpleasant situation, charters and declarations paves the way, like a guide, to a future likely, possible, and consistent (involved therefore in the rhetorical activities as Aristotle, and Perelman after him, defines it). In this way, we should consider them as linked to an utopian project. Showing the consistence of utopian dynamic through a parallelism with the original work of Thomas Morus, we wish to question here the possible existence of a rhetorical genre of utopia, its features and the uses of its rhetorical technè.
